POWER OF PENTECOST
Early in this century, Mrs. Jesse Penn-Lewis noted, "It
is clear in Bible history that the manifestation of the power of God in The
Pentecost, and through the Apostles, meant again an aggressive attitude to the
powers of Darkness. Therefore, the growth and maturity of the Church of Christ
at the end of the dispensation will mean the same recognition, and the same
attitude toward the Satanic hosts of the prince of the power of the air, with
the same co-witness of the Holy Spirit to the authority of the Name of Jesus,
as in the early Church. In brief, that the Church of Christ will reach its high
water mark, when it knows how to ‘bind the strong man' by prayer, ‘command' the
spirits of evil in the Name of Christ, and deliver men and women from their
power. [i]
